Definitions

  • Electrodynamic/magnetic transducers which are a subgroup of electroacoustic transducers, are used wherever electrical or electronic signals are to be converted into speech and/or speech is to be converted into electrical or electronic signals.
  • Typical fields of use are, therefore, the audio and hi-fi field, domestic engineering in areas where alarm and bell signals are output, and telecommunications engineering, for example.
  • the electrodynamic transducers are particularly used, for example, in handsets (cord-connected, cordless—e.g., mobile parts and mobile phones), headphones and headsets, usually in the form of earphones, but also sometimes in the form of a microphone.
  • handsets cord-connected, cordless—e.g., mobile parts and mobile phones
  • headsets usually in the form of earphones, but also sometimes in the form of a microphone.
  • electromagnetic transducers is less common.

  • static magnetic fields stray fields
  • MF magnetic fields
  • the particles If the particles are small enough to pass through the (voice inlet) voice outlet openings, they collect at the place of greatest field strength (clearance of the pot magnet TM) and permanently jam a diaphragm MB of the transducer. Depending on how sensitive the diaphragm MB, is and hence the transducer as such, toward such mini foreign bodies, the result is either an abrupt total failure or a gradual failure of the diaphragm MB.
  • Piezoelectric transducers used as earphones have no pronounced magnetic field.
  • the transducer technology based on the piezoelectric effect has two clear disadvantages as compared with the transducer technology based on a magnetic field: 1) From the point of view of speech quality, electrodynamic transducers, particularly with small diameters, are clearly superior; 2) Some countries (e.g., Australia, Great Britain, USA, Italy) and, in addition, British Telecom and France Telecom, generally have the requirement of “hearing aid compatibility” (hac) for stimulating hearing aids.
  • This stimulation is (virtually) exclusively inductive and is based on a dynamic magnetic field (alternating field). This means that the required (measurement of the alternating field in an hac measurement plane as shown in FIG. 1) magnetic alternating field needs to be produced using cumulative supplementary coils.
  • a dynamic magnetic field MF d (as shown in FIG. 2 —a basic sketch of an electrodynamic transducer), which is needed on account of the hac requirement and is also large enough given proficient dimensioning of a plunger-type coil TS which produces this dynamic magnetic field MF d , in conventional electrodynamic transducers, is also attenuated to such an extent that it is no longer sufficient for the hac requirement. This means that additional air-core coils are again necessary here, too, to amplify the alternating field.
  • a cover AD shield, e.g., in the form of a shielding plate
  • This cover concentrates the field lines of the stray field MF s and allows them less projection into space.
  • the cover must, of course, be provided with openings to be “transparent” to the sound pressure produced by the diaphragm MB.
  • the magnetic alternating fields MF d (cf. FIG. 2) for the hac requirement are consequently attenuated again, however, and therefore need to be produced with supplementary coils fitted in front of the cover.
  • EP 0 422 424 A2 discloses an electrodynamic transducer with improved electrical and magnetic shielding, which has a moving coil, a diaphragm and a magnet system which are surrounded by a housing with a cover. Clamped between the inside of the cover and the internal pole plate of the magnet system, there is an insert which is made of a nonmagnetizable, electrically insulating material. The insert defines the axial position of the magnet system with respect to the cover, and the cover shields external magnetic alternating fields and has openings which let through a sound pressure.
  • DE 3 401 072 A1 discloses an electrodynamic transducer head for nondestructive testing of workpieces using ultrasound, wherein the transducer head has an electromagnet which has a magnetic yoke and includes an outer pole shoe and an inner pole shoe surrounded by the latter. These pole shoes have exciter and reception coils arranged on them.
  • these exciter and reception coils are provided with a protective cap which is surrounded by a protective ring whose end face facing the workpiece projects over that of the protective cap, the inner pole shoe and/or the protective cap having radially extending slits for preventing eddy currents, and the slits letting through a sound pressure.
  • An object to which the present invention is directed is that of improving the propagation of magnetic fields by electrodynamic/magnetic transducers, particularly in telecommunication devices, such that static magnetic fields produced by the transducers are substantially shielded and dynamic magnetic fields are radiated in a substantially unimpeded manner.
  • the idea on which the present invention is based is that of providing a magnetic cover (shield), e.g. for technical production reasons, in the form of a shielding plate or deep-drawn plate which is substantially impermeable to static magnetic fields from an electrodynamic/magnetic transducer, at least in the sound exit region of the transducer.
  • the cover can be inserted, for example while the transducer is being mounted between the housing which surrounds the transducer (e.g., the handset shell) and the transducer, or it can be premounted on the transducer in the form of a pot.
  • the cover has a number of openings passing through the cover, the number of openings being designed to be such that;
  • the cover provided with the openings still has a predetermined strength or stiffness with respect to its original strength or stiffness and is, thus, still mechanically mountable;
  • the openings spatially delimit eddy currents on the cover which are produced by dynamic magnetic fields from the transducer, which means that these eddy currents cannot develop to full strength.
  • the cover includes a particular combination of geometric and magnetic material properties.
  • the spatial delimitation can be achieved in that the openings cross the eddy currents which would be induced without them in the cover.
  • the openings fulfill the listed criteria (1) . . . (3) quite well, in an alternative embodiment particularly when they are arranged or run substantially radially on the cover.
  • the cover is slit; that is if the openings are in the form of slits, for example.
  • the opening(s) are arranged in the center of the covers on account of the concentration properties of eddy currents (concentration of eddy currents), particularly with rotationally symmetrical covers.
  • At least one of the slits is substantially the same length as the length of the cover at its maximum extent.
  • the magnetic cover is soft magnetic, or has a low coercive force.
  • Introducing a magnetic material into a magnetic field produces a gain in the dynamic magnetic field component present in the magnetic field if the substance of the material (in the present case the substance of the cover) with regard to the magnetic field containing the material is coordinated with one another such that, under these circumstances, the point under consideration is the steepest rise in the new curve for the hysteresis curve.
  • this gain is therefore desirable because it means that other measures for amplifying the dynamic magnetic field, e.g. using additional air-core coils, are not necessary.
  • the magnetic cover is made of a material such that, with the predetermined magnetic field from the transducer, a maximum gain is produced for the dynamic magnetic field let through by the cover.
  • FIG. 1 shows a basic sketch of an electrodynamic transducer which is known in this field
  • FIG. 2 shows another basic sketch of an electrodynamic transducer which is known
  • FIG. 3 shows a shielded cover which is known for telecommunication devices
  • FIG. 4 shows a specific embodiment of the cover of the present invention, on the basis of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 5 shows a hysteresis curve associated with the present invention.
  • FIG. 6 shows a basic sketch of an electrodynamic transducer having an amplified dynamic magnetic field, on the basis of FIG. 2 .
  • FIG. 4 shows, in contrast to the cover AD shown in FIG. 3, a specific cover AD′ which is of rotationally symmetrical design, for example.
  • the cover AD′ can be inserted, while the transducer is being mounted, between the handset shell and the transducer. Alternatively, it can be premounted on the transducer in the form of a pot.
  • the particular feature about the cover Ad′ is a combination of geometric and magnetic material properties.
  • Arranging openings OF which are in the form of slits SZ, for example, as radially as possible ensures that eddy currents produced by the magnetic alternating field from the plunger-type coil of the transducer are reduced on the cover Ad′ or in the plane of the drawing. Furthermore, the reduction can be improved further if at least one slit SZ′ of the slits SZ runs through the center of the cover Ad′. According to Lenz's law (three finger law), the original alternating field is now attenuated only slightly by the remaining eddy currents.
  • the cover Ad′ preferably should be made of a soft magnetic material which, as shown in FIG. 5, is coordinated with a magnetic field strength H TM produced by the transducer's pot magnet at the location of the cover Ad′.
  • the plunger-type coil TS now produces a cumulative alternating field H AC2 .
  • H AC2 the point under consideration is the steepest rise in the new curve for the hysteresis, and significant AC remagnetization M AC2 is produced in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the cover.
  • the field strength H TM relative to the hysteresis has been chosen to be too small (a field strength H′ TM with a cumulative alternating field H AC1 ) or too large (a field strength H′′ TM with a cumulative alternating field H AC3 )
  • the alternating field contribution as a result of remagnetization to the hac field is negligible.
  • FIG. 6 shows this amplification phenomenon, on the basis of FIG. 2, using a basic sketch of the electrodynamic transducer. As compared with the illustration in FIG. 2, the dynamic magnetic field MF d shown in FIG. 6 has been amplified. This is conveyed by a greater number of field lines.
  • the electrodynamic transducer is covered or shielded with the cover Ad′, as described on the basis of measurements taken on handsets (mobile parts), the static magnetic field MF s at the surface of mobile parts can be reduced by approximately 87%, so that no kinds of iron filings, paperclips, pins, etc. can be attracted against the force of gravity any longer. At the same time, the hac field strength rose by approximately 200%.
